things were OK. Interesting, but not condusive to a long life.


I think he meant the other way 'round.


Thanks George, thought I was going crazy.

-I can gather all the news I need
on the weather report-

When I was based at Kupper, the nearest
reporting station was Newark. Newark's on the coast and frequently has IMC
when Kupper is VFR. I remember an FAA inspector telling a safety meeting
group that we were technically illegal if we flew VFR when EWR was IFR. I
don't think any of us changed our habits as a result of that statement. I
certainly didn't.

Because she smells like a new truck.
